About English Literature With English Language in University of Salford

From the language of poetry to that of social media, the study of literature and language opens up the world of human expression and communication. On this course, you will not only build a detailed knowledge and understanding of literature and language but you will also gain insights into social and cultural issues that affect our lives. You will have the opportunity to explore the relationship between literature, language, and society.

You will learn to research and analyse texts from literary and linguistic perspectives and will have the chance to study a wide range of topics, including romanticism, modernism, children’s literature, 21st century literature, medieval prose and poetry, Shakespeare, modern Irish literature, the history of the English language, varieties of English, corpus analysis, attitudes to language, and many other subjects.
